While many child stars struggle to enjoy the same levels of fame they experienced as youngsters, Miley Cyrus has proven it can be done.
After appearing on our screens as Hannah Montana in the 2000s, she's managed to forge an incredibly successful pop music career to prove she's not just a Disney icon of yesteryear.
Of course, all that success hasn't come by coincidence, but seemingly a lot of hard work.

Last year, Cyrus, 31, shared the gruelling work schedule she had as a young teenage star, leaving many fans joking how she was more than deserving of a ‘little endless summer vacation’.
In a video released on TikTok, as part of her ‘Used to be Young’ intimate interview series, she shared her schedule from an average day when she was younger.
“I’m probably, like, 12 or 13,” she recalled.
“Friday January 5th, 5.30am, hair and makeup in my hotel.
“7am we get picked up. 7.15am I’m on the news. 7.45am I have another live interview. 8.15am another interview. 8.45am another interview. 9.30am-11am meeting with editors. Back to the hotel.
“Okay, I have to do an interview, but the reporters are all fifth grade students.”
It’s at this point that many of us would probably be in desperate need of a nap, but not for Cyrus.
She continued: “1pm-2.30pm me and my dad have a lunch interview. 2.40pm we have to go to the Life magazine photoshoot. 3pm-5pm interview and photoshoot for the Father’s Day issue.
“Arrive at 6pm for kids online interview, then at 6.15pm we have another interview.
“Then the next day starts at 7am and ends at 7.30pm - when I fly home to probably go to Hannah. That’s on a Saturday. And then Monday be back at work in the morning.”
She laughed: “I’m a lot of things...but lazy ain’t one of ‘em!”

A voice – presumably that of mum, Tish – can be heard telling her at the end of the video: “That truly was the next four years of your life.”
Cyrus then says: “So, I do think this girl deserves a little endless summer vacation.”
And it seems many fans agreed, with one sharing the clip on Twitter and making the same reference to her latest album, Endless Summer Vacation, which was released in 2023.
Someone else said: “The most iconic queen.”
And another wrote: “The schedule is insane.”
